Gosh, then we don't need to worry or other bother about all the

Is this emerging God with a perpetual happy face into poetry?

Obviously this emerging God you're sucking up to has a built in cost
of living clause in his/her employment contract, as well as an iron

Is there a before and after pillaging, plundering, raping and blood-
letting poem that's emergent God approved? If not, I could certainly
help make one up.
